That's weird.

That's equally as weird! Bizarre, in fact.

You could truss it. E.g.:

        $ truss -f -o /tmp/truss.log basename

...and see if something stands out. I can't find a Solaris 7 host on our
network - I think we've retired them all now, or I'd check further.
Nothing stands out when truss'ing our 2.6 or 8 basename, though.

Also, check a few things:

        $ ls -l /usr/bin/rcp /usr/bin/rsh /usr/bin/rlogin

Are all three owned by root and is mode 4755? If not, set accordingly.
